Looking around, the U.S. stock market has reached a new historical high again, with the entire market on the rise. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 have once again set new historical highs. Among them, the S&P 500 index has been in a bull market for two full years, historically reaching over 5800 points for the first time, heading towards 6000 points.
Although the U.S. stock market rarely sees sharp surges, this kind of long-term, slow bull market allows most people, no matter when and where they buy, to eventually enjoy the rise and the bull market. It is the most friendly trend for ordinary retail investors.
Markets that experience sharp rises and falls may seem like they can make people rich overnight, but for the vast majority of retail investors, not only can they not enjoy the rise, they will eventually have to give back the gains along with their principal.
